your post `10 mentions James Chesnut who I believe is Mary Chesnuit’s husband. Mary Chesnut wrote a Diary which is considered one on the best accounts of the happenings and feelings in Richmond during the war as many know.

Post #13 is Mary’s diary entry for today, which ties neatly to the “Lee” excerpt.
